Looking at getting one of these boards for use with a dual-core Opteron but the specs and manual on the DFI site don't mention Opteron support anywhere.
Obviously people are using this board with the Opteron but does the board support it natively or do you have to mod it in some way to allow the Opteron to work?
Additionally, is registered memory required when running an Opteron? Everything I've read seems to suggest that the Opteron's memory controller requires registered ECC memory yet people seem to be running them with standard unregistered, unbuffered stuff.
Sorry for the n00b questions but I'm a bit new to all this AMD 64/FX/Opty lark
